SPOILT HK BANDS!

wow, just re-watched the Converge "long road home" video, & i realised most of the venues are like school halls! the pa's are not amazing, & yet anything less than perfection doesnt seem to be good enough for a lot of local hk bands.
then again, Converge have a true punk/hardcore attitude, these guys just wanna bust their asses playing as many shows as possible.
im glad a small punk scene is starting to show up in hk, oi! squad, defiant scum & my band (rat alley) will be playing more shows soon, & we will put on a good show with whatever we got!
if i could afford to i would be putting on shows everyweek, but with the cost of kit i cant, this could be one of the many things holding hk back, coz lets face it for a city like hk, the music scene is weak.

THE DANGERS OF PAIN KILLERS!

so yesterday was interesting, having problems with my ankle (hurts like fuck, cant put weight on it, long story!) so i decide it's a good idea to use the pain killers julia was prescribed a while ago......... max dosage is 12 a day & i took about 16 in like 6 hours. resulted in me passing out for like an hour, then wandering into the kitchen & collapsing then passing out again.
remember kids, DONT DO DRUGS!

by the way, heres a vid of rat alley from pier pressure last weekend, + some sedlec, discombobulation & from this day.

FINAL RAT ALLEY ARTWORK!

WATCH THIS VIDEO!

this a whole set from hugely influencial band BUZZOV*EN, from 1994. these guys were close on the heals of eyehategod & kick started the sludge scene, without these guys there would be no rat alley!


Watch & enjoy, or hate it, i dont care just check it out & let me know what you think!


this is a video of their last show (1998) but the quality is not as good.
